13-3 Loss to Storm Extends Vancouver Losing Streak
The Saskatchewan Storm marched over the Vancouver Thunder, 13-3, at Gordie Howe Memorial Stadium. Lonnie Johnson, who is a two-time Gold Glove winner, led the charge. He was 2-3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Bill Decker was the winner. He's now 3-3. The loser was former first round draft pick José Sánchez. The Thunder, now 19-19, have lost 6 in a row.

José Hernández, who is tied for 9th in the WL with a .313 batting average, chipped in a grand slam home run for Saskatchewan in the bottom of the second. For the game, the catcher had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 2 runs scored, and 4 runs batted in.

"We got our butts kicked," said Vancouver manager Adam Annis-Brown.
